If by real, you mean the cook in the back who pissed in your food has a tattoo of a tiger, yes.

Anyone who orders tiger meat deserves a big bowl of ass meat and urine.

I had a friend in junior high named Lee. Lee was a very odd fellow. He would do a lot of strange things with his body, for example, he used to push safety pins though his skin, just for fun. Anyone, late one evening, he calls me up and says "Hey! Guess what. I just drank my own pee!"

don't they say that if you're very thirsty (ie stranded in a desert) that it is better to drink nothing than to drink your own urine?

True, and a documentary on the process is available for $5.99 in VCD format. At least, that's what my e-mail tells me.

They might say it, but the dude who cut his own arm off when he was stuck under a boulder a couple years ago drank his urine for 6 days to stay hydrated--seemed to have worked for him.
